I have a HP G61 511WM.

 

I'm looking to change my laptops processor as the one in it at the moment blows. I want to know if this is possible, and which to

upgrade and things to be weary of. 

 

So far is seems if they are in the same series, you can replace the processor of a better model. Which means I would be able to replace my processor, AS LONG as it was in a better version of my laptop. According to this article I found, this guy did it and it worked, but his was a different model than mine, just wanted to check with you guys to see if it will still be possible on mine.
